Hi I am looking for a part-time babysitter for Term 4 who is able to pick up our 9 year old daughter from school on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday at 3.30 pm and take her to her afterschool activities on those days.

We have a nanny position available at our house. We have three beautiful kids who are 5, 9 and 13. We have a wonderful, much-loved nanny who is (very sadly for us) moving away. We are happy to put you in touch with her for our reference.

We are a very lovely family, focused on supporting our kids to grow into great human beings. However life is very chaotic (we also have 2 overly-friendly dogs and three chickens). We are a busy household with two parents who work long hours in very stressful jobs. So the nanny role is extremely important to us - it’s a huge factor in whether our family is happy and functional.

We are looking for someone to work mornings and evenings M/T/W (7.30 - 9.30, then 3 - 6pm) and then a full day (7.30 - 6pm) on a Thursday. The role is mainly caring for children, with some cooking, cleaning, laundry, house support, etc. You would be properly employed, with super, annual leave, etc.

Please let us know if you’d like to learn more. :)

I have two boys (aged 7 and 9).
I need someone to do pick up from school at 3:30 and hangout with them until about 6pm on Monday-Friday.
At home, I need a bit of a hand - emptying dishwasher, getting dinner on and making lunchboxes for the next day. Where possible a little spot cleaning or laundry but nothing overwhelming. There will be some travelling to basketball training as well.
